    **NFL Head Coach 09 Bugs/Glitches Thread**

    I'm working on my second career, and I'm going in to the start of the offseason after my third season and a lot of my NFL Comparisons are screwed up. By that I mean that many players have NFL Comparisons for players at different positions. I had a QB who compared to Issac Bruce, a WR that compared to Ty Law, a LB that compared to Al Harris, and all sorts of other strange ones.

    Will this affect my draft class and will I have to restart because the draft class is screwed up?

      Re: NFL Comparisons is screwed up

      In year 4 of my Franchise, almost everybody outside of the 1st round has the same exact comparison.

      I'll have 10 WRs with a "Cotchery" comparison. Or 10 HBs with a "Derrick Ward" comparison.

      In the NFL Scout Combine, many of the prospects have virtually identical Combine results.

      It looks like there are just many duplicate prospects.

        I have Ron Spielberg with the Vikings. He stared as a 77 and now he is a 82 with small school insider, mid major insider, and big school insider.

          I'll give you hint I have discovered. If your looking for sleepers in a draft, never draft a guy that has an NFL comparison in common with more then 1 player in that same class (this is in case you dont know how good that NFL player is). For instance take the Derrick Ward example any RB compared to him rarely has a Pot. of more then 77. So don't bother drafting him. But most of the time there is a QB compared to Drew Brees who has a Pot. of about the 88-91 (field general philosophy).

            I had one example of this where a CB was compared to Devin Hester. I just assumed this was due to his return capability or his speed (also that was Hester's original position). But it doesn't seem like a game could make that connection.

                the Issac Bruce and stuff could mean that he's like a Matt Jones type where he's a QB now but u should change him to WR.

                  I had a WR comparison to a CB, drafted him, and the WR had MCV 75, ZCV 79. His tackling is just okay but he intercepts any ball he gets his hand on. I kept him at WR, but he's actuall my 4th WR and my 4th CB.

                  I'm glad to hear there are more players out there that may be like this, it's a cool little twist to the game.
                  We can see the past and travel into the future.

                    I've seen the cross-positional comparisons too.

                    Luckily, none of them have been "elite" comparisons, so it didn't make me consider picking them up.

                    And I agree on the issue of certain comparisons being very common.

                    In my career, at least, it seems Vinny Ciurciu got himself cloned and is pumping out an army of mediocre MLB's.

                      I know. I have to watch the loser play in real life.

                        Yeah, i've noticed a lot of guys compared to like a guy named Fanele or something. I think they're defensive ends but im not positive.

                          Not enough players retireing

                          In my game, I'm in year 12 or 13 a large group of players is above the age of 35, with some at 41. Lorenzo Neal is still playing at the age of 50.

                          He is still an 81ish OVR FB.


                          Seems just a tad unrealistic to me.










                          Still love the hell out of this game though
